    Bird in mud, I have shot Quail Gut them, wrap bird with feathers on in mud then place bird in bed of colas for about 30 min or so, turning so often. The mud dried around the bird, when I pulled the mud off the feathers come off with the mud, and the bird cooked. :hatsoff:

    Makeing and Keging beer

    Thanks for the site: "Beer Brewing at Black Creek Pioneer Village" As I thought, the beer was flat by today’s standards, and was cloudy. Hops were imported from France, Holland and Germany and naturally import duty was raised on those; it was not until 1524 that hops were first grown in the...

    Fire tending

    I never trusted anyone to help keep a fire going. So, this is what I have always done. I set up a small lean-to [7x6 canvas] next to the fire. I would have a lot of fire wood within arm reach [pile wood on ends of my lean-to, help keep wind out] I would have a few punk logs / rotten logs they...
